INCI: Isopropyl Myristate

Isopropyl Myristate is a synthetic oil used as an emollient, thickening agent and lubricant in beauty and personal care products. It is composed of of Isopropyl Alcohol (a propane derivative) and Myristic Acid (a naturally-occurring fatty acid), It is most often used an an additive in aftershaves, shampoos, bath oils, antiperspirants, deodorants, oral hygiene products, and various creams and lotions.

A unique characteristic of Isopropyl Myristate is its ability to reduce the greasy feel caused by the high oil content of other ingredients in a product. This synthetic oil is often added to beauty products to give them a slicker, sheer feel rather than an oily one.

Light and Sleek

I am not using this a lot yet across the products I am making - mainly where I want a lighter, softer feel that is not too greasy - like in a hand wash, bath oil, etc.

Isopropyl myristate

Not sure about that the emollient properties were worth it with this product. The smell was also a bit offputting so would need to think about adding nice smelling essentials oils to the product you are making.
